There are three different types of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who need help for a mental health problem may want an outpatient option because of their responsibilities or because of the possible tarnishing of their reputation associated with their problem. Many clients can still have a normal school or work day and get outpatient mental health care with complete privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health programs are either based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Mount Ayr. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from facility to facility, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health facility will conduct a complete evaluation of the client's medical history, both mental and physical, including their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological testing is also an usual process, and clinicians and physicians will come up with a course of care that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the individual requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug addiction, most outpatient mental health centers are prepared to treat this dual diagnosis.
